TAKOMA PARK, Md. Center Ashley
Thackeray put in 21-points, and pulled down 5-rebounds, but the
Southern Virginia Women's Basketball came up short against
Washington Adventist, 64-61. The game was a mirror image of the
first match-up between the two teams, as SVU took a one-point led
in to the break, and looked to escape with a win. However, WAU was
able to convert 14-of-32 shots in the second half, and was able to
post the home victory by 3.

Thackeray's night started quietly as she went 3-for-7 in the
first half. She exploded in the second, missing only one shot and
converting a 3-pointer to help the Knights stay in the game with a
chance to win. Thackeray went 9-for-14 for the evening from the
field. Jasmin Johnson and Jessica Anderson contribute 9-points apiece to help
the Knights' cause. Johnson was the team's leading rebounder as she
pulled down 9-boards.

After struggling from the field the previous night against Penn
State- Fayette, SVU bounced back with a strong performance hitting
19-of-45 shots, and going 2-for-3 behind the three-point line. A
game-breaker the night before became a strength for the Knights as
they showed well from the free-throw line, going 21-for-26.

The Knights again won the battle for rebounds as they pulled
down two more than WAU's 34. The Knights could not find an
answer for the Shock's bench as they were outscored 25-9 bythe
second unit of WAU.

SVU falls to 8-15 on the season. They will return to action Feb.
20 when they host Bluefield. The game will be the final home game
for the Knights, and will be Senior Night. Tip-off for the game is
5:00 pm, and the game will be the first of a double-header with the
men's team paying at 7:00 pm.
